THE GIRL AT THE LION D'OR

First edition, first printing. Original olive-green cloth with gilt titles to the spine, publisher's decorative endpapers, in dustwrapper. A fine copy, the binding square and tight, the contents clean throughout and without previous owner's inscriptions or stamps. Complete with the equally fine dustwrapper which remains without fading or loss, minimally nicked to upper corners. Not price-clipped (£11.95 net to the front flap). A lovely copy.

The author's second novel, and the first in a French Trilogy that continues with 'Birdsong' and 'Charlotte Gray'. 'A beautifully controlled and restrained story which catches character, period and place in a subtle but absorbing manner, rather like a prose Vermeer' (Piers Paul Read).
